Spinach and Artichoke Calzone Recipe

Made a great quick dinner the other night and meant to give my dear friend Sandrini the recipe-and didn’t. So here ya go!!!! Compliments of Rachel Rayy. I got all ingredients at Traderr J’s (*) and modified to match

Spinach Artichoke Calzones
serves 4 to 6

2C part skim ricotta (*1 15 oz container was fine)
1/4 t ground nutmeg
Ground salt and pepper to taste
½ C/or couple handfuls parmigiano reggiano cheese (*use bag of shredded parmigianno)
*10 oz frozen chopped spinach, defrosted and squeezed dry
¾ bag of frozen artichoke hearts
2 cloves minced garlic
2 bags of prepared whole wheat pizza dough (from the refrigerator section)
2 C shredded mozzarella
1 jar of Tj’s pizza sauce

Preheat over to 450F


Combine ricotta, nutmeg, salt/pepper, parmigiano, spinach, artichokes, and garlic.
Take one container of dough and divide in half. Roll into oval/rectangle. Place
½ C mozzarella and ¼ of mixture on ½ of the rolled out dough and fold over. Roll over edges to seal. Repeat with remaining dough to create 4 calzones.
Place on pizza stone/cookie sheet and cook until dough is brown and cooked thru. (20 min plus)
Serve with warmed pizza sauce.
